Minor issue with Dev Studio 2005 -> open from source cont

Post by JoeFromm » Fri May 18, 2007 7:31 am

We are still using build 3.1.6.3658 for both client and server, so perhaps this has already been addressed, but I did not see it called out in any of the release notes for later versions.

We have several large solutions containing many projects, and we use project property sheets (*.vsprops) files to let us set properties in a single location without having to go to each project.

If I attempt to use the IDE integration to open a project from source control, it appears that vault brings down all of the .sln and .v*proj files from the repository, but it does not bring down the .vsprops files. Dev Studio then fails to load all the projects using the property sheet.

The workaround is simple enough - do a get of those files first - but it does mean that anyone trying to use open from source control faces a gotcha.

We haven't had other reports of this, so if it is a bug, it was never addressed.

We'll try to reproduce it here.
